If the Savior Stood Beside Me: Silent Video
I tell the children, "I have a video for you." I turn off the sound and play the New Testament video from the Church website Suffer the Little Children to Come Unto Me. (You should download it so that there is no interference if your streaming is interrupted.) I start at minute 1:05, stopping the video when I have sung one verse of the song through twice.As the video plays, I sing "If the Savior Stood Beside Me" with pauses as I point to different things in the video. It is a profound experience for the children and myself. Watching the video and imagining ourselves in the setting with Jesus deepens our feeling about the song and what it might be like for us to be beside the Savior. The Holy Ghost often attends this experience, filling the room. The children are often extremely quiet and engaged in this activity.
